Emperor Naruhito and Empress Masako greet guests during the spring garden party at the Akasaka Palace imperial garden in Tokyo.
Every spring and fall, garden parties are hosted at the Akasaka Imperial Gardens. The Emperor and Empress invite about 2000 guests, including Heads of the Diplomatic missions in Japan and other Diplomats and Heads of consulates; government officials; people who have rendered distinguished service in various fields including industry, culture, the arts and social activities; along with the spouses of all of these people. In addition, the Crown Prince and Crown Princess and the rest of the Imperial Family also attend.

Hi Pamela: They are so adorable.

This looks very grand.
Nine female and two male members of the Imperial Family. How are they going to deal with the imbalance?
That is a huge number of guests to get around and say hello too!!
2000 people?! That's not a party, that's a festival!
It is said that members of the imperial family are asked to remember the names and backgrounds of their guest at garden parties. Of course, Their Majesties the Emperor and Empress will remember It perfectly.
Princess Aiko attended the spring garden party for the first time since graduating from university this spring and getting a job at the Japanese Red Cross Society. It was a spring garden party where Princess Aiko’s splendid appearance left an impression.
